Publisher’s Synopsis:

“Told in lively and powerful verse by debut author Kevin Noble Maillard, Fry Bread is an evocative depiction of a modern Native American family, vibrantly illustrated by Pura Belpre Award winner and Caldecott Honoree Juana Martinez-Neal. Fry bread is food. It is warm and delicious, piled high on a plate. Fry bread is time. It brings families together for meals and new memories. Fry bread is nation. It is shared by many, from coast to coast and beyond. Fry bread is us. It is a celebration of old and new, traditional and modern, similarity and difference.”

Review: Dr. Debbie Reese: American Indians in Children's Literature (AICL)

“Those of you who follow AICL know that we emphasize the importance of sovereignty... Of knowing that Native Nations pre-date the United States. So many names inside this book! It will be empowering to so many readers.

[...]

Fry Bread pushes back on the expectation that Native people look the same (black hair, dark skin, high cheekbones etc.).

[...]

The final pages of Fry Bread can help you interrupt that kind of harmful statement. There, Maillard wrote that: ‘Most people think Native Americans always have brown skin and black hair. But there is an enormous range of hair textures and skin colors. Just like the characters I this book, Native people may have blonde hair or black skin, tight cornrows or a loose braid. This wide variety of faces reflects a history of intermingling between tribes and also with people of European, African, and Asian descent.’

It is quite the challenge to impart substantive information in an engaging way, but Maillard and Martinez-Neal have done it, beautifully, in Fry Bread. I highly recommend it!  [...] In the Author's Note, Maillard provides teachers and parents and librarians who do not know this history, with information they can use to prepare to use the book with kids. It is an exquisite author's note! It spans eight pages that correspond with the illustrated pages that are the heart of Fry Bread. “

Guest Post: Finding Joy and Comfort in Picture Books: Celebrating Diversity with Teens

Today we welcome guest blogger Deborah K. Takahashi. She’s a librarian, author, YALSA blogger, and a youth mental health advocate. We appreciate hearing her ideas about the use of picture books with teens.

For high school educators and teen librarians, encouraging young people to read is an important aspect of the job. Whether it’s fiction, nonfiction, comics, or manga, reading sparks imagination, joy and provides a healthy outlet for young people to express themselves. Along with reading stories, interacting with the words and the story is just as important. During adolescence, teens have reached an incredible milestone in their development where 80% of their brain has fully developed.¹ Although their brain is mostly developed, the frontal lobes of their brains have not caught up with their physical development. While adolescence is difficult for young people, it’s an exciting time for educators, advocates, mentors, and librarians.

Since reading can be used in different ways, books, specifically picture books, are an incredible tool to build critical thinking skills. Although some teens will see this as “lame,” this activity  gives teens an opportunity to practice these skills that’s not intimidating. In fact, some teens may be delighted to re-read a book they read as a child. Given the current political, economic, and social climate, teens are not only living through a pandemic, they have been forced to adjust to a reality that has robbed them of valuable life moments and experiences that many adults have already experienced. In addition to the chaotic world they are growing up in,  teens are bombarded with a plague of misinformation via mainstream media and social media. As educators and librarians, not only is it part of the job to demonstrate critical thinking skills teens need to thrive, this important task can be done with a little creativity and fun.

One topic that teens have been hearing and seeing in the media is Diversity, which is a subject worth exploring using picture books. Again, some teens may roll their eyes at this activity, this is a great introduction to approaching texts with a critical eye while working with their peers. For this particular activity, provide groups with a picture book and ask them to read it aloud and break the story down in parts and ask them to identify the central problem of the story, discuss what issues led to the problem, and develop  solutions to solve the problem.  The best part of this activity is there is no right or wrong answer. With all readers, life experiences have a huge influence on how they interpret their world and problems that are presented to them.  More importantly, teens will have the opportunity to express their own opinions and, through respectful dialogue, come up with a consensus on what the author may be trying to convey to readers.  

With Diversity, this activity not only draws on the students’ individual experiences, it also allows teens to address their own bias and misconception of Diversity. Moreover, this activity will empower teens to talk about an issue that is important to them as they have grown up in a world surrounded by peers from different ethnicities, religions, identities, and abilities. By asking teens to look at the text with a critical eye, teens are able to discuss an important issue as recent events have conveyed the need for reforms in regards to Diversity. In addition, teens can also discuss another aspect of picture books, which are the illustrations as well. 

Here’s one fact worth mentioning to students: unless the author of the picture book is an illustrator, the author does NOT have the option to choose their illustrator. Interestingly enough, illustrators are selected by the publishers who purchase the manuscripts.  According to The Society of Children’s Book Writers and Illustrators (SCBWI), “The editor who purchases your picture book manuscript or the art director at that publishing house will ultimately choose the illustrator.” In other words, authors have no idea who will illustrate their book. This approach will encourage students to take a closer look at the illustrations to see if they match the author’s vision.

Here’s a list of questions for groups to think about and respond:

What does the term Diversity mean to you? Does this book do a good job representing the term “Diversity”

Why is it important to have diverse books? More importantly, why is it important to have diverse books for young children?

Is it important to have books featuring characters from different cultures? Why?

Compare the text and illustrations? Are there any similarities or differences?

Do you think the illustrator interpreted the author’s story well? If so, why or why not?

Did the illustrations impact the story in a meaningful way?

Did you identify with any of the characters? If so, how does it make you feel?

As you read the text, did you encounter any bias from the author or illustrator?

Did this book teach you anything about your own bias?

If there is one thing you took away from this book, what is it?

While this activity can be approached as a group, some of these questions may make students feel uncomfortable. Always preface that teens are welcome to share if they want; otherwise, encourage teens to write their responses down in a journal or notebook for them to look back on. While responses are important, the goal of this activity is for teens to engage in thoughtful and respectful dialogue. At the crux of this activity is the goal to encourage teens to think and express themselves in a meaningful way to develop other valuable skills such as empathy, compassion, and the courage to stand up against injustice. Even as an adult, picture books still provide me with so much joy because they produce simple, yet powerful messages. The same experience can also occur with teens.

Here is a list of topics and books that will elicit great conversation:

Mixed Race Americans:

Mixed Me by Taye Diggs and Illustrated by Shane W. Evans

One Family by George Shannon and Pictures by Blanca Gomez

Maisie’s Scrapbook by Samuel Nar and Illustrated by Jo-Loring Fisher

African Americans

Crown: An Ode to the Fresh Cut by Derrick Barnes and Illustrated by Gordon C. James

A Girl Like Me by Angela Johnson and Illustrated by Nina Crews

Show Way by Jacqueline Woodson and Illustrated by Hudson Talbot

Asian Americas

The Name Jar by Yangsook Choi

Eyes that Kiss in the Corners by Joanna Ho

Coolies by Yin and Illustrated by Chris Dentpiet

Latinx Americans

Islandborn by Junot DIaz and Illustrated by Leo Espinosa

My Papi Has a Motorcycle by Isabel Quintero and Illustrated by Zeke Pena

Alma and How She Got Her Name by Juan Martinez-Neal

Native American/Indigeouns Americans:

Thunderboy Jr. by Sherman Alexie and Illustrated by Yuyi Morales

A Day with Yayah by Nicola Campbell and Illustrated by Julie Flett

Fry Bread: A Native American Family Story by Kevin Noble Maillard¹Edwards, “Deciphering the Teenage Brain,” https://hms.harvard.edu/news/deciphering-teenage-brain

— Thank you again to Deborah K. Takahashi for sharing with us today.

Are there other picture books that you’d recommend for use with teens? Or if you’re a teen, are there picture books you’ve appreciated beyond childhood?

Thoughts:

So, obviously the standout this month was Dracula - nothing could compare to reading this novel through Dracula Daily and the entire tumblr experience of it all. What an absolute treat. 

This was a much better reading month than I remember it being. Although, I do remember absolutely loving Marmee. Little Women is my favorite book and hearing the story through the matriarch’s tender recollections was just lovely. 

Also, if you haven’t read Olivia Atwater yet, make that a goal for next year. Longshadow has been my favorite read of hers so far, but they are all so comforting and cozy. 

Goodreads Goal: 377/400 (this is a silly number - do not attempt this)
